"Through the eye we go outward, but through the ear we go inward."

These binaural recordings are experiments in a sort of lo-fi augmented reality sound, and are best experienced with earbuds/pods rather than over ear noise-cancelling headphones. Listen in a familiar or unfamiliar setting. Be aware of the real sound and the virtual sound, and how the border between the two can sometimes become blurred. These listening pieces can be experienced as just that, "listening pieces" or can be treated as a type of “awakened aurality” through which the listener begins to develop a more comprehensive awareness of their sonic environment.

This listening project is called "Locative Listening and the Construction of Dynamic Hybrid Space." While my exploration of hybrid space is concerned with the split between the real and the virtual, dynamic hybrid space introduces observations of the ways in which temporality exerts a very strong influence upon the experience. It is hybrid in that it is composed of two primary elements; the real; visual, vestibular, auditory, olfactory, and haptic stimuli, and the virtual; technologically mediated listening experience. The term “dynamic” is used as a means of expressing the ephemeral nature of this form of listening.
